There are a lot of reason why they are noncompliant. For example, if you realize that you forget something while you are about inserting catheter into the patient, then you need to leave the room and start all over again. The patient will look at you stupid, and he will most likely refuse the care or he will ask for a different nurse. You will not look very professional, so you will have to be all ready and plan everything out before going into the room. Some patients are noncompliant because they feel hopelessness and just want to not live anymore. There could be different reasons why they are noncompliant. There are other possible factors: misunderstandings due to medical terminology, misunderstandings due to language, a hearing disability, or mental barriers, patient not realizing the seriousness of the condition, patient believing the treatment will be embarrassing or uncomfortable, and the list goes on (McGrath 2013). As a nurse, the first step is to find out why the patient is noncompliant. There are strategies to combat patient noncompliance such as educating the patient regarding the recommended treatment or test and why it is necessary, provide clear oral and written instructions to the patient, emphasize the seriousness of the condition, and explain to the patient why why they should accept the care to treat the condition. Whether the patient …show more content…

    As a pathmaker intern I will uphold Palomar Health's mission: to heal, comfort, and promote health in the communities that they serve. In order to do so I will take it upon myself to consider patients desires while following the medical professional's instructions, as well as make myself available to be a shoulder to lean on if needed, and promote a healthy living style in my community. From personal experience, I am aware that patients may not always like the course of treatment or the restrictions that come with it, but it's in their best interest to comply with these restrictions. In most cases the patient wants to take a deviant course of action from what is supposed to be done.…

    If a nursing intervention follows the nursing process, e.g., assess, diagnose, plan, implement, and evaluate – it demonstrates the clinical reasoning that supports the patient care. As cited by Alfaro-Lefevre (2012) Skip the principles of assessment and diagnosis and it’s easy to jump to conclusions, miss risks, and give care based on assumptions rather than evidence. Assessment errors and omissions are a major cause of adverse outcomes. If you fail to plan before implementation, the risk of adverse outcomes also increases. Skip evaluation, and reflective nursing practice (not to mention patient safety) goes out the door (p. 1).…

In the implementation phase the nurse and members of the MDT put the care plan into action (Daniels 2004). Frisch and Kelly (2002), explain, nursing is a dynamic practice and all nurses must continually include new assessment information into the implementation of the care plan. Therefore nurses must use a wide range of evidence based knowledge, careful planning, critical thinking, analysis and judgement (Daniels 2004). Roper et al (2001) stress the importance of evidence based knowledge in nursing practice, to enable a practitioner to give rationale explanations regarding the decisions made, allowing them to be a safe and ethical practitioner and provide patients with the best possible care.…

    It contributes to greater nurse efficiency and professionalism which helps results in better health outcomes for the patients. EBP is a crucial element of quality care since individual nurses are able to position themselves to provide optimal care to the patients by using the competencies acquired from the practice (Polit & Beck, 2010). Patients will often have an improved outcome where EBP has been used because it promotes the collection, interpretation and integration of reports from the clients, observations of the practitioner and the research obtained from evidence to give maximum results. As a result, the preferences of the patients themselves, their families and those of the community as a whole are served (Polit & Beck,…

    Because the patient’s condition does not remain static, the nurse is required to kick off the implementation stage by reassessing the patient to check if the proposed interventions remain the most appropriate and revising the existing care plan if need be. The nurse will then organize the required resources such as personnel, equipment, and environmental availability and suitability. In addition to this, the nurse will ensure that the patient is comfortable and able to participate. To successfully implement the interventions, the nurse utilizes his or her cognitive, interpersonal and psychomotor skills to ensure professional delivery of compassionate and skilled care. The final stage of the NP is the evaluation stage.…

I view my care as assisting the patient in activities that they would normally do for themselves if they were able. I foster my patients to gain their independence as quickly and safely as possible.…
